Game Thread: Illinois vs Maryland

[Mr. Tibbs]

Has IL gotten the benefit of a single close review this year?

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Wow, I am absolutely amazed at how bad that call was.

 

[Illini-Rule]

What a BS overturn.

Was that worse than the flagrant that happened on Tuesday?

 

[BDMAN]

Do the refs dream up new ways on how they are going to screw the Illini talk about a BS call

 

[TheodoreRex]

How the hell does this keep happening to us? You shouldn't have a job officiating if you can't get that call right. It was RULED A CATCH- how was there enough evidence to overturn that? He grabbed it, took two steps, then fell to the ground, hit it, then the ball started to fumbling..

 

[IlliniCaboose]

I'm at the game, what did the TV crew say?

 

[Jimbo]

I just logged in to say, “bs”

 

[UCantHideYer]

Might be a worse call than Bam‘s flagrant vs Texas Tech.

 

[SuperMetroid]

One possession and we already have a ridiculously terrible call. Never change, B10 refs

 

[RDS]

Replay is ruining football - ridiculous call

 

[TheChief4Life]

Well, I guess refs are setting the trend early this game…

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Somebody had prop bets on a 3 and out. Prove me wrong.

 

[skyIdub]

When the f@cking color commentator understands the rule more than the lead official.

Time to start drinking.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Why the hell do we get egregious calls against us no other team in the B10 gets every single effing week? That is just an utterly asinine call.

 

[RockfordIllini]

Would have been bad enough if that was the call on the field. But how do you overturn that on a replay? Just awful.

That and the Kylan flagrant might be the worst 2 replays I’ve ever seen.

 

[OskeeLoyalty]

Man we get so many BS calls

 

[CDRUSN]

We may have to overpower a poor Maryland team with plenty of high powered offense, and hopefully get the running game going to win the time of possession and keep our D off the field. I am officially off the Henry bandwagon. We need a new DC next year with a completely different and more aggressive philosophy. Instead of flying to the ball, pressuring the QB, and playing tight pass defense, we are extremely passive and laid back. Totally unwatchable even against a bad team like today.

 

[Epsilon]

I can’t stand refs that like to make plays. SMH.

 

[STLflyinIllini]

Fire all the officials

 

[Juju]

The flagrant at the end of the basketball game on Tuesday and now that absolutely inexcusable call in this football game. I swear, it's almost like the B10 purposely sends out the absolute WORST refs for our games.

 

[FloridaMan]

How can that call be wrong on a replay? Could it be that Maryland needs two more wins to become bowl eligible? No, that couldn't be it I'm sure. This is the B10 conference we are talking about.

Total joke.
